Forced to become his stand-in wife

"The Ling Qiu you want is already dead."

"Died of a broken heart when you forced him to kill the child."

"Dead in despair while being thrown into a prison by a fire pit."

"Difficult to give birth under the bridge hole and died."

"During those 15 years, you killed him bit by bit, and he would never come back."

Qin Muyang only saw Ling Qiu move his lips, he seemed to hear what he said clearly, but he didn't seem to.

Until his lips stopped moving, his ears were buzzing.

Qin Muyang, what on earth do you need... to believe the fact that Ling Qiu no longer loves you?

He asked himself, his nose was sore, his eyes were swollen, and his heart hurt.

Qin Muyang grabbed his head with one hand, covered his heart with the other, curled up on the ground in pain, moaned in pain, and tears fell to the ground in succession to form a water hole.

"You're not my Ling Qiu...not...he wouldn't treat me like this..."

For a moment, Qin Muyang felt that he was deep in the mire, he was struggling to fall in the mud, and Ling Qiu stopped indifferently and looked at him in the dark.

He looked at Ling Qiu's feet, and countless images flashed through his mind.

Those were all the pictures of those 15 years, the way Ling Qiu smiled at him, he looked at him cautiously, and he nodded and told him shyly that he liked him.

Ling Qiu asked him to let him go, but he clearly remembered that a long time ago, he still hugged himself, said that he was fine, that it took all his strength to love him, and that he should like him no matter what.

Ling Qiu stood up and looked down at Qin Muyang's embarrassed appearance. There was no wavering in his heart, and he even wanted to laugh.

He said lightly: "I am Ling Qiu, I just don't take you as the center anymore."

Qin Muyang was drunk, and it was useless for him to talk to him.

He walked around him towards the door.

Qin Muyang was lying on the ground, and raised his head suddenly after hearing footsteps: "You stop, you stop me!"

Ling Qiu didn't stop because of his words, he walked to the door, held the doorknob with his hand, and suddenly heard a loud "bang!" coming from behind.

He turned around, only to see Qin Muyang lying on the ground in all directions.

Lying on the ground in embarrassment, unable to get up, he still yelled at him not to leave.

Ling Qiu just frowned, then left the room without hesitation.

The butler was waiting outside the door, and when he saw him coming out, he bowed slightly and greeted him: "Mr. Ling."

Ling Qiu nodded: "Qin Muyang was drunk and collapsed, you go and take care of him."

collapsed?The housekeeper looked puzzled, and looked at Ling Qiu in embarrassment: "Mr. Ling, let me take you upstairs first."

"No need, I'll go up by myself."

The butler stood there, watching Ling Qiu go upstairs and close the door before he turned around and entered the study.

Qin Muyang was already lying on the ground, and the coffee table beside him was pushed away by him, the glass fell to the ground and was torn apart, and there was still blood on the floor.

Seeing the bright red, the butler's eyelids twitched, and he hurried over to help the heavy Qin Muyang onto the sofa.

"Boss Qin, are you okay?"

Where did he get the blood from? The housekeeper thought that Qin Muyang had been injured somewhere, but after looking around, he realized that he was vomiting blood from his mouth.

There was no delay in vomiting blood, so the butler immediately called the family doctor and told him to come over quickly.

There were still tears in the corner of his eyes, Qin Muyang wanted to raise his hand to wipe it, but he was so hurt that he couldn't even lift his hand.

Qin Muyang said hoarsely, "The doctor is calling...don't disturb other people..."

Qin Muyang didn't know how much wine he drank, and he had stomach bleeding.

After taking sober medicine, the whole person was still groggy.

After hanging up the medicine, Qin Muyang asked the doctor and the housekeeper to go out, and there was no need to leave anyone in the room to watch him.

After they left, Qin Muyang stared at the ceiling dully, his muddy mind regained some clarity.

What Ling Qiu said to him in the study just now rang in his ears again and again.

He thought that Ling Qiu was useless, but now it seems that he is the one who is really useless.

Ling Qiu returned to the room, and went to bed without taking a shower.

His mind went blank for a moment, did he really want to stay by Qin Muyang's side?

He still didn't believe the one year that Qin Muyang said, this person had lied to him too much, if it was really a year, he would still be able to bear it, only to realize that it was year after year, a constant cycle.

Ling Qiu couldn't help but raised his hand to cover his heart, so as to cover up the pain in his heart, but no matter how hard he tried to cover it tightly, his heart would burst into dull pain, like ripples that instantly hit his whole body.

The next day, Qin Muyang woke up in a daze. He stood up and drew the curtains to open the window, and the cold wind blew in.

It was slightly bright at this moment, Qin Muyang went to the closet and changed his clothes, then went out to the kitchen, put on the apron familiarly and started making breakfast.The time is about the same as in City C.

Wash the rice, turn on the water, turn on the fire, and when the water boils, Qin Muyang puts minced meat and shredded ginger in it, and the fragrance oozes out little by little.

When the nanny got up to make breakfast, Qin Muyang was almost done, and he adjusted the temperature to keep warm.

The nanny was surprised and ashamed: "Boss Qin, why do you get up so early, I'll come if you let it go."

"No, you go out."

After listening to Qin Muyang's order, the nanny had no choice but to leave.

It was already 07:30 when the porridge was ready, Qin Muyang ordered the helper to take the porridge upstairs.

And he told Xiqi to get up.

Xiqi's room was temporarily installed by someone he arranged for. Although it was temporary, it took some effort.

The whole interior of the house is decorated in pink, the bed is a princess bed, the wardrobe is European style with arcs, and there is a dressing table. There are many dolls in the room, the most of which are Xiqi's favorite dolls.

Qiqi was still asleep, the quilt was covered in a ball covering his little head, only the figure curled up under the quilt could be seen.

Qiqi's sleeping posture is very similar to Ling Qiu's, they both like to sleep in the corner with their body bent.

He called softly: "Qiqi, get up."

Qi Qi didn't reply to him, Qin Muyang watched the body under the quilt move, and knew that she was awake.

He sat down gently, and gently pulled down the quilt, revealing Qiqi's face.

"Qiqi, uncle made porridge."

After waiting for a while, Qi Qi finally opened her eyes. Her eye sockets were a little red and swollen, and her eyelashes were wet. It looked like she had cried secretly.

After Qi Qi glanced at him, he turned his head away.

"When will I see Dad?" Qiqi doesn't know the time, but she knows that it's one day when it's white and then dark, and today is the third day.

The uncle told her that as long as she was obedient, he would take him to see his father in two days.

She waited and waited yesterday, until it was dark, but he didn't see her father.

She didn't doubt whether her uncle was lying to her.

She thought about it sadly for a long time, and finally fell asleep at the thought.

I had a dream at night, dreaming that my father didn't want her anymore and wanted to send me to my uncle. She cried out in pain, and woke up from crying in a daze. When she opened her eyes, she was still in the strange and beautiful princess room.

There was no one around her, she was afraid of the dark, and even more afraid of being alone.

Hiding under the quilt and crying secretly, he missed his father.

"After dinner, Uncle will take you to see Dad, okay?"

Qiqi let out a muffled hum.

Qin Muyang got up and touched the top of the child's head, then lifted her up and dressed her.

It was the first time for him to dress a child, and his movements were clumsy, and he was afraid of accidentally hurting the child.

Qiqi can feel who treats her well and who treats her badly. For example, now she clearly feels that Qin Muyang is very gentle to her.

She obediently raised her little hand to ask Qin Muyang to dress her.

Qiqi is not in good health, and the temperature in City A is a bit colder than that in City C.

He added a few more clothes to the child, and put on a big red winter skirt, which looked very cute.

Qin Muyang picked up Qiqi, sat on his arms and hugged his neck and said: "Uncle, I can go by myself, you can put me down."

"But uncle wants to hug you, can you?" Qin Muyang asked the child in a discussing tone.

Qiqi instinctively felt that if he rejected his uncle, would he be unhappy for a while?I won't take myself to find my father.

Qiqi hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "Okay."

Qin Muyang smiled and carried Qiqi to the restaurant.

Only the father and daughter were eating breakfast at the dining table, Qin Muyang ordered the servants to leave, and he fed the children with a bowl.

He had seen how Ling Qiu fed the child before, learning how to remember, feeding while blowing, and asking: "Is it hot?"

Qiqi shook her head and said, "It's not hot."

After eating, he said obediently, "Thank you, uncle."

Qin Muyang felt relieved and sad at the same time that the child was so sensible.

"Eat more, and give your father a hug when he sees you."

"Ah, my dear girl is getting heavier again." Qin Muyang imitated Ling Qiu's tone.

"He'll be delighted."

"Yeah!" Qi Qi nodded and ate another bowl of rice.

Her appetite is very small, and she usually eats one bowl at most, but after hearing Qin Muyang's words today, she actually ate two bowls.

The little belly bulged up uncontrollably, but fortunately he was wearing a tutu skirt, so it couldn't be seen.

After feeding Qiqi, Qin Muyang hugged her and landed on the ground: "Go and play, and I will take you to see Dad when uncle finishes his breakfast."

Qiqi looked around, and finally went to the living room and sat on the sofa.

There was a partition between the living room and the dining room, and while playing with his fingers, Qi Qi sneaked a look at Qin Muyang.

After Qin Muyang finished eating, he took the initiative to take the bowl to the kitchen. When he came out, he found Qiqi standing in the corner of the restaurant, looking at him expectantly.

Qin Muyang suddenly remembered that Ling Qiu used to love to stand in the corner of the restaurant and look at him.

"uncle?"

Qin Muyang's eyes were in a daze, and he smiled and said, "Let's go."

He took Xiqi's hand up to the third floor, and when he took out the key, Qiqi asked, "Is Dad right there?"

"Well, he's in there."

Qiqi watched him take the key to open the door, and couldn't help but ask again: "Why did you lock Dad in here?"

Qin Muyang was speechless and didn't know how to answer his question.

You can't tell your child that your father locked him here because he wanted to run away.

The door opened, and Qin Muyang walked in with Qiqi.

Ling Qiu was still sitting on the balcony, his eyes staring down in a daze.

"Father!" After seeing Ling Qiu, Qi Qi immediately let go of Qin Muyang's hand and ran towards Ling Qiu happily.

Ling Qiu's body jerked back to his senses, he turned his head in a daze, and when he saw his daughter, his eyes turned red.

He hastily squatted down and hugged Qi Qi who was running towards him into his arms.

"Qiqi...Qiqi..." Ling Qiu's voice was hoarse.

"Father, I miss you so much." Qi Qi said aggrievedly, she lay on Ling Qiu's shoulder, and stretched out her hand to hold his clothes tightly.

The grievances of the three days all erupted at this moment, tears fell uncontrollably, and fell on Ling Qiu's shoulders, leaving a dizzy mark.

The cry of his daughter was like a small hand tightly clenched his heart, Ling Qiu hugged his daughter's trembling body, heartbroken.

"Stop crying, Qiqi, Dad will always be by your side and won't go anywhere."

"En!" Qi Qi cried for a while before stopping his tears, and he lay softly on Ling Qiu's shoulder.

After comforting his daughter, Ling Qiu looked at Qin Muyang who was standing in front of him.

He took a deep breath and said hoarsely, "I promise to accompany you for a year, but I have conditions."

It is expected that Ling Qiu has conditions, Qin Muyang asked: "What conditions?"

"An agreement must be drawn up. The agreement must clearly state that I will accompany you for one year. When the time is up, you will let me go free. From now on, the two will not want to do anything. You can't pester me. The agreement must go through legal procedures, and both parties will sign and stamp their fingerprints."

He had to make it clear to Qin Muyang that he lied by nature, and what he said could change at any time.

Qin Muyang agreed to him: "Okay, I'll let the lawyer come."

He turned his eyes to the side, and when he saw the untouched porridge on the table, he said, "You should eat your breakfast first."

Qiqi let go of Ling Qiu slightly, and said in a low voice, "Father, eat obediently."

Ling Qiu raised his hand and touched his daughter's forehead, "Okay."

The porridge has cooled down.

Qin Muyang was worried that he would spoil his stomach: "I'll ask the servant to send you another copy."

"No need." Ling Qiu picked up the bowl and drank directly.

Qin Muyang looked at his face and said nothing more.

He withdrew, leaving room for the father and daughter, and walked outside to the corridor.

Qin Muyang looked through the contacts, found Lawyer Zhang and called him directly.

The phone rang for three seconds, and the other party answered it calmly.

"Is there something wrong with Mr. Qin?"

"We need to draw up an agreement here, so come here."

Lawyer Zhang asked him, "Which aspect?"

Qin Muyang said: "Personally, but you have to go through legal procedures, you have to bring the procedures here."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the call, and after putting the phone in his pocket, Qin Muyang walked to the door, turned sideways and looked inside through the crack of the door.

Ling Qiu and Qi Qi had fun inside, seeing the father and daughter smiling, he couldn't help laughing too.

This is actually what he wanted.

Ling Qiu in the room noticed the gaze from outside the door, he looked up and met Qin Muyang's gaze.

Seeing that he had found him, Qin Muyang didn't hide anymore, opened the door and walked in.

Ling Qiu glanced at him and then lowered his head, without much expression on his face.

"When will the lawyer arrive?"

"Around noon." Qin Muyang said, "Take Qiqi to play in the yard downstairs, the air is good down here."

Qi Qi glanced at Qin Muyang secretly, and seeing that he was also glancing at him, he hurriedly turned his gaze to Ling Qiu's face.

"Dad, let's go down and play, it's very big outside, and there's a big swing."

The swing in Xiqi's mouth is the rocking chair in the garden, Ling Qiu saw Xiqi sitting on it when he was upstairs.

Unable to reject his daughter's expectations, Ling Qiu took Qi Qi's hand and went downstairs.

When they got downstairs, Qi Qi was very excited, took Ling Qiu to see her bedroom, and handed Ling Qiu the doll on the bed.

Seeing Qi Qi's happy appearance, Ling Qiu felt a little sour in his heart. Since Qi Qi was born, he hasn't lived a decent life until now.

"Qiqi, do you like it here?" Ling Qiu asked tentatively.

"It's beautiful, but without Dad around, Qiqi doesn't like it."

Ling Qiu slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, and kissed his daughter's forehead contentedly.

Qi Qi laughed out loud, hugged a doll and then took Ling Qiu's hand to play in the yard.

— Playing until eleven o'clock at noon, lawyer Zhang rushed over.

Lawyer Zhang was still panting slightly when he arrived, with hot sweat on his forehead, and he seemed to have rushed over in a hurry.

The servant invited Lawyer Zhang to the reception room, poured a cup of tea and put it on the table, and went to invite Ling Qiu and Qin Muyang.

Ling Qiu handed her daughter to the helper, and then followed Qin Muyang to the reception room on the first floor.

Lawyer Zhang had already been waiting there, and half of the tea in front of him had been drunk.

Seeing the two people coming in, Lawyer Zhang stood up and said hello: "Hello, Mr. Qin, Mr. Ling."

Ling Qiu nodded towards him.

After being seated, lawyer Zhang took out his computer and opened the file.

"Boss Qin, what kind of agreement do you want to draw up?"

Ling Qiu frowned, what kind of agreement is it that he is trapped by Qin Muyang's side?

Does "support" count?

Unexpectedly, he, Ling Qiu, would be "nurtured" one day, and he was "nurtured" by the person who looked down on him the most.

He moved his lips, and before he could speak, he heard Qin Muyang beside him say, "Marriage contract."

The two words rang in Ling Qiu's ears like thunder, and shocked him even more than the words "encouragement".

Lawyer Zhang was also stunned. He didn't expect Qin Muyang to call him over today, and what he proposed was a marriage contract.

Qin Muyang is well-known in the business world as a golden bachelor, a proper golden bachelor.

Unexpectedly, it was such a simple and vulgar marriage, and the other party was still a man.

Lawyer Zhang has been in the industry for so many years, so he naturally understands a set of rules in the legal industry, that is, don't ask more questions that shouldn't be asked.

After thinking about it, he stabilized his mind and found the marriage contract from the folder.

"I'll prepare it right away, please wait..."

"Wait..." Ling Qiu was in a hurry, his eyes were dark and moist, and his face was a little pale.

"Qin Muyang, tell me clearly, what marriage contract? When did I agree to marry you?"

"You stay by my side for a year. We get along as husband and wife in this year. What is it if it's not marriage?"

"I...you..." Ling Qiu was at a loss for words for a moment, did he want him to say in public that he was Qin Muyang's lover?

"Actually, no matter what the relationship is, we'll only be together for one year." Qin Muyang said bitterly, "So the proposed marriage contract is nothing, not to mention it's nicer to talk to the outside world."

Ling Qiu was silent for a while, Qin Muyang was right, but in a year, it doesn't matter what the relationship is.

The important thing is that he can leave smoothly after a year.

—Lawyer Zhang, who was listening to their conversation, frowned involuntarily.

If...he heard correctly, Qin Muyang was talking about a one-year marriage contract.

As soon as he thought about it, Qin Muyang spoke up.

"The marriage contract is for one year. After one year, the two of you will have nothing to do with each other from then on."

Lawyer Zhang drew up a formal agreement according to what Qin Muyang said verbally.

He asked again, "Is there anything else that needs to be added?"

He looked at Qin Muyang, and Qin Muyang looked at Ling Qiu.

Ling Qiu pondered for a while and said: "The specific time of my departure must be written clearly, it can only be forwarded and not delayed."

Qin Muyang only felt a piece of Coptis chinensis swallowed in his throat, and the bitter taste went all the way to his heart.

Does he want to leave him so much?Thinking of Qin Muyang, he gave a wry smile, didn't he already know the result?

Lawyer Zhang asked while typing, "Anything else?"

"You can't force me to do anything this year."

You can't force it. These two words can sum up a lot.

Lawyer Zhang stopped and asked, "Mr. Ling, can you tell me something specific."

Ling Qiu bit his lip and paused for a while: "For example... going to bed..."

What he fears the most is that Qin Muyang forced him to go to bed. When he thinks of the days when he was pressed on the bed as an airplane cup four years ago, his body trembles with fear.

Lawyer Zhang was dumbfounded. Marriage is not allowed to go to bed. Marriage of rich people is capricious.

He turned to Qin Muyang: "Boss Qin, what do you think?"

Qin Muyang was very calm, without much expression: "Listen to him."

Lawyer Zhang: "Okay...is there anything else?"

Ling Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, after solving the two most important matters, other matters are not so important anymore.

After lawyer Zhang typed out a page, he printed out the agreement and put it in front of Ling Qiu and Qin Muyang, who each took a copy.

"Mr. Qin Zongling, take a look and see if there are any other problems. I can make some changes."

Qin Muyang glanced at it and then didn't look at it.

Compared with Qin Muyang's hasty glance, Ling Qiu looked at it very carefully, reading every word, not even punctuation marks, for fear of missing any omissions.

After reading the three pages, Ling Qiu had to admit that this lawyer had strong professional skills, and every point was clearly written.

The ones he mentioned were also darkened to make them look clear.

After reading it, Ling Qiu put it on the table and said, "No problem."

Lawyer Zhang opened the folder and took out the official seal to change it.

After making sure that the seal was not missing, he handed over the agreement together with the pen: "Mr. Qin Zongling, sign and stamp on the lower right corner."

After seeing the two signed and pressed their fingerprints, Lawyer Zhang couldn't help but sighed.

He has done a lot of marriage agreements, but this is the first time he has done this.

Lawyer Zhang took the agreement and glanced at the names of the two people side by side. For some reason, he felt a little sour.

"The agreement between the two has come into effect." Lawyer Zhang put the agreement into the briefcase while talking.

"Then President Qin, I'll leave first."

Qin Muyang nodded and asked the housekeeper to take him out.

— Only Ling Qiu and Qin Muyang were left in the empty reception room.

Qin Muyang looked at the place where the two of them signed together. It seemed that this was the first time their names were so close together.

Marriage contract...Ling Qiu finally became his "bride".

Three years, or even more, when he knew that Ling Qiu was his child bride-in-law, he had thought about it.

One day Ling Qiu will marry him and be his real wife.

Unexpectedly, I have waited so long for this day, and... the time is still so short.

"I'm going to accompany Qiqi." In the end, it was Ling Qiu who broke the silence, and when he got up and was about to leave, Qin Muyang grabbed his hand.

"Qiuqiu and so on."

Ling Qiu subconsciously wanted to struggle.

Qin Muyang reminded: "We are already married, so it's okay to hold hands?"

Ling Qiu was stunned for a moment, and stopped struggling instantly.

He looked at Qin Muyang, looked at him carefully, and wanted to see what he was going to do next.

However, Qin Muyang just looked at him quietly, his eyes were as gentle as a pool of water, and there was endless nostalgia in the depths.

"Come with me somewhere, I have something for you."

Qin Muyang grabbed Ling Qiu's hand and led him to the master bedroom on the second floor.

After entering the room, Qin Muyang loosened Ling Qiu's hand and said softly to him: "Wait for me here, don't go."

After speaking, Qin Muyang took out a key from the bookshelf and opened the first drawer of the bedside table.

Ling Qiu looked at him honestly, watching Qin Muyang take out an exquisite box from the drawer.

When he saw the black box, Ling Qiu's body froze, and a strange feeling spread from his heart.

He seemed to have guessed what it was.

When Qin Muyang walked up to him with two boxes, Ling Qiu spoke first: "Qin Muyang, we are just a contract, there is no need

It seemed that he already knew, Qin Muyang lowered his head and opened one of the ring boxes on his own.

There was indeed a ring inside, the men's ring was simple and elegant, with a row of blue diamonds in the inner ring, the diamonds were small, and had a faint blue light under the sunlight.

He took out the ring and handed it to Ling Qiu: "The marriage contract must be strictly enforced. Have you ever seen a married couple who didn't wear a ring?"

Others wear rings when they get married, that means true love, but what about them?They don't have any feelings, it's just a contractual relationship.

Seeing that he hadn't moved, Qin Muyang stretched out his hand to hold Ling Qiu's hand and raised it up.

"I'll let you wear it."

The ring was made according to the size of Ling Qiu's hand, and it fit just right, making his hand very slender and white.

Qin Muyang looked at the ring on his ring finger and raised his index finger to rub it.

"Qiuqiu, you are finally married to me. If possible, I really want to take you to the Civil Affairs Bureau to have your marriage certificate taken, and then hold a grand wedding ceremony, giving you an unforgettable wedding."

Ling Qiu withdrew his hand, and turned his gaze out of the window.

The weather today is very good, a rare sunny day in winter, the sun is very strong, and the eyes are a little sore.

Ling Qiu closed his eyes, it's not that he didn't think about getting married, when he was with Qin Muyang back then, he was looking forward to it every day.

If you don't have enough dreams at night, you still have daydreams, until you wake up directly from the dream.

It was a big dream, and after a few years, the original relationship has long since faded.

But now he really didn't expect that he would get married one day and wear a wedding ring.

Even... everything in front of me is fake...

After Ling Qiu withdrew his hand, Qin Muyang took out another ring from the ring box and put it on his ring finger.

This pair of wedding rings was what he saw at a foreign exhibition a year ago.

The name of the ring is unique.

Treat it as one and only.

He likes this word, Ling Qiu is his only, his unique, his only.

Ling Qiu wears his left hand, while he wears his right hand.

He held Ling Qiu's left hand, and the rings on their ring fingers were close together.

Qin Muyang said: "I heard that couples who have worn rings in marriage will have a red thread on their hands after they die, so that they can find each other in the next life and continue their relationship."

Ling Qiu glanced at him, and said with a sneer: "Useless is affection. This kind of entanglement is the most fruitless. I don't want to have a next life with you at all. I just hope that when the contract time comes, you can let it go cleanly." Me, stop pestering me and Qiqi."

Qin Muyang felt a little sour: "Don't worry, I will abide by the agreement in the contract."

Ling Qiu talked about Qi Qi again: "I hope you don't tell Qi Qi about your relationship with her. Anyway, after a year, she and I will leave. I don't want her to have feelings that she shouldn't have."

Shouldn't there be a relationship with him before?

Qin Muyang clearly remembered what Ling Qiu said last night, and he told him so ruthlessly.

He doesn't love him anymore.

The Ling Qiu who loved him in front of him is already dead.

The current Ling Qiu is Ling Qiu who no longer centers on him.

Qin Muyang asked: "Ling Qiu, you said you don't love me, then why did you give birth to Qiqi?"

Hearing what he said, Ling Qiu laughed angrily, "I gave birth to Qiqi because she is my daughter, not because she has anything to do with you."
